Last night in White Settlement, Texas, an impaired motorist smashed into a parked car that stood empty on the street. The incident, which took place in the 8100 block of Gibbs, ended with the driver's arrest by Officer S. Brown, after they were found to be driving while intoxicated (DWI). White Settlement Police Department confirmed the arrest, urging the community to use app-based ride services as an alternative to impaired driving.
The recent string of similar incidents in the area raises concern. Over the past week and a half, there have been seven arrests related to impaired driving. The local police have taken to social media to combat this trend, reminding residents of the services at their fingertips. "We responded to an impaired driver in the 8100 block of Gibbs last night where the driver struck an unoccupied parked car on the street," per the White Settlement Police Department. "The driver was arrested by Officer S. Brown for DWI."
White Settlement residents are being reminded of the gravity of impaired driving and the risk it poses to themselves and the wider community. The police statement delineates the hazards, implicitly urging the public to think twice before dismissing the use of app-based services that can circumvent potential tragedies. "Over the past week and half, there have been 7 arrests for impaired driving and we remind residents to take advantage of app-based ride services," the White Settlement Police Department implored. Highlighting such statistics and providing solutions, the local authorities are striving to curb this dangerous behavior before more accidents occur.
